Sweep control does not save json file

[1ranjani1]

Does not save comments json file, but the state runs without error. Maybe it is related to Issue 55

@1ranjani1: Up till now there would be a json file saved each time:

1. Control experiment was run
2. A Transport VI was run (Lockin_time)
3. Sweep program was run (Sweep_control).

Moving forward I would prefer to save the json-formatted metadata inside the tdms file. How does this sound?

@1ranjani1 ie, https://github.com/levylabpitt/Transport/issues/40, this issue was "fixed" already. Is there a problem?

[1ranjani1]

All my other experiments till Aug 2022 have this json file in the folder, from whre I read comments.

After Oct 2022, none of the experiment files have this json file. the comments tab is empty while opening data from the data analysis programs

The json-formatted notes are saved in channels named \, \, and \

1. Is there an issue with the channels having "\<" or ">" in the name? Perhaps they should be named something else (In particular, the \ channel will be problematic because it is sometimes named \). Should they be combined into one "json-notes" channel?
2. I think that the "notes" channel should not be empty, but we can discuss since the information is contained inside the json channels

The tdms file have these comments What about the experiment description that I type out in the sweep control? Perhaps we should discuss in person tomorrow

@1ranjani1 our messages crossed. But yes we can discuss in person
